Qatar to spend $100b on infra. projects

Country to be wealthiest nation ever to host the Fifa World Cup and is the smallest nation to stage the event since Uruguay in 1930
Amid the wreckage and fallout in Zurich on Thursday of another failed England World Cup bid, the most remarkable global story of the day was surely Fifa's decision for the 2022 tournament.

jack, don't worry, world cup is still 12 years from now. you have enough time to grow your hair & nails long and parctise sashaying your hips while walking while covered in an abaya of course. hahahaha...
WHAT.... No fan zones for us?
I was afraid they might hit us with the "family day" stick at the fan zone.
how much of that will be spent on improving salaries for those who will be doing the real work?
Jacko Fan zones will be NO to a resident. Hold your permit tight. lol
It would be inshort MASSIVE INVESTMENT that any country has ever done so far..
I am looking forward to the Fan Zones ;)
Let the projects begin..
Work work and more Work..:)
